AN: I do not own My Hero Academia.
TheKursed: Izuku is going to pull some Asui and just say what's on his mind without thinking a lot. Makes for some hilarious conversations.
Delusional777: I couldn't really think of a way for him to fight Katsuki without badly damaging himself since he hasn't received any upgrades yet.
This fic is going to mostly likely going to be either IzuMina or Izuku x Ochako. I'll pick based on what fits more for my story.
Grimmich: He does All Might's attacks because even after being put down by his idol, he's still a fanboy at heart and recognizes All Might as the purest form of heroism.
(U.A.)
When everyone returned back to the viewing chamber, All Might had told us that Iida was the MVP of our match. Our class seemed surprise by this, and Asui asked why not Uraraka or me since we had won. When he asked the class why it was Iida, Yaoyorozu answered.
"It's because Iida was most able to adapt to the scenario," she said, "From what I saw Bakugo's every action was motivated by an obvious personal grudge. And as you mentioned before, Sensei, using destructive attacks indoors is foolish. Midoriya's performance suffered from the same faults."
I did let the differences between Katsuki and me get in the way. I could admit that.
"Uraraka lost focus halfway through and her two final attacks was far too haphazard. Such attacks would be unthinkable if the nuclear weapon was real. But Iida formed an actual counter strategy and he envisioned what the actual struggle would be like. He was only too late in reacting at the very end. The Hero Team only won because this was a training exercise with exploitable constraints."
Everyone, even All Might, was silent. Her analysis was spot on. I clapped since she did such a good job.
"Good job Yaoyorozu! I told you wouldn't take long to catch up!" I said, causing her to blush a little.
"I-I'd also add that Iida was a bit too stuff, but yes. You're correct!" All Might said, giving the girl a thumbs, "Also Bakugo escort Iida to Recovery Girl's office. He needs to be checked out in case he has a concussion. Also turn in your communicators."
Bakugo and Iida handed in their stuff before heading off, while Uraraka was looking at me expectantly.
"Sensei, it might take a few minutes to give ours back," I said, "I put them in Uraraka's helmet."
"What about yours? Did you lose it?" I have been ousted! I wanted to keep it!
[Annoyance increased by 5%.]
"Just do whatever you have do, Young Midoriya," All Might said, after giving me a strange look that sent a chill down my augmented spine, "Group B and I are next!"
[Gratitude towards All Might increased by 2%.}
Now that everyone's attention was off me, I ripped Uraraka's helmet off, getting a small amount of protesting from her. I turned my back towards her, about to undo my upgrade in her helmet. But she kept trying to see what I was doing.
[Formulating plausible explanation.]
"Uraraka-san, please stop looking. I get really nervous when someone watches me do this," I explain, "I was a really late bloomer. I didn't really have any friends and got picked on a lot for not having a quirk."
[Embarrassment in Uraraka raised by 10%.]
She blushed a little. "Okay, Midoriya-kun."
She turned around and I was finally able to remove the communication device from her equipment and myself. I then walked forward to the number one hero and handed him the small pieces of electronics.
"Thank you, Young Midoriya," All Might said, "Todoroki and Shoji, head out and began your planning. Hagakure and Ojiro are already in place are about to begin their preparations."
"That was pretty cool," Shinso said, as he approached me.
"Yeah, Midoriya-kun! I kind of already knew you were super strong, but seeing it again still excites me," Uraraka added, "We only won because of you."
[Happiness in Uraraka decreased by 15%.]
[Formulating appropriate response to negate happiness loss.]
"No, we won together, and you saved me. If you hadn't stepped in at the last moment, Iida would taken me down. I was on my last leg," I told her, "Literally."
"What do you mean?" she asked, with Shinso giving me an inquisitive glance, "Does it have to do with your quirk?"
"Yes. When I use the upper limit of my quirk, I hurt myself. If I launched another attack with my arms, I believe they would have been broken," I answered.
"Use your legs next time," Shinso remarked.
[Legs in human bodies are typically twice as strong and durable as arms.]
[Shinso has made excellent point.]
[Incorporating legs into combat modules.]
"Good point Shinso," I said, petting the purple haired boy on the head.
[Confusion status inflicted on Shinso.]
[Anger in Uraraka increased by 60%]
What the…
"Sensei! Midoriya-kun needs to go to the nurse!" she yelled suddenly.
"He does?" Uraraka nodded vigorously, "You two can go now."
[Danger of secret being found out!]
[Escape route must been found!]
I can't see Recovery Girl! She would find out in an instant. She's the only Japanese hero with a medical license, besides Best Jeanist. But hers was far more extensive.
"No, I don't!"
"Yes, he does!"
"He does, Sensei!" Shinso added his two cents. Traitor!
[Shinso now regarded as Filthy Traitor!]
"Young Midoriya, go to the nurse's office!"
"No! I've got to watch all these battles and record all that valuable data!" my classmates were giving me strange looks, "I can find potential applications of their quirks they never thought of! I basically doing some of the teachers' jobs!"
I knew I seemed desperate and I was. But I couldn't go to the nurse.
[Effects of gravity on self have been negated.]
[You are now at the mercy of Uraraka.]
I felt Uraraka put both her hands in my left one and pulled my floating body out of the room.
"I hate you, Uraraka," I said she kept pulling me like I was balloon on a string.
"Sure you do Midoriya-kun…"
I settled for glaring at All Might and Filthy Traitor.
(Nurse Office)
Uraraka finally stopped using her quirk on me when we reached the door. We passed by Eraserhead and Uraraka explained how stubborn I was being. He let her keeping using her quirk on me. Life was unfair.
We had came at the time to see Iida be finished with his check up. Katsuki was glaring at my chain and ball and me. "Why the heck are you two here?"
[Suspicious activity detected in this "Katsuki."]
[Eyes narrowed.]
"Stop staring at me like that, Deku," it said, "Freaking weirdo."
[Eyes are now slits.]
["Katsuki" is not Katsuki.]
"Intruder!" I yelled, winding up a punch for this imposter.
He dodged my hasty attack. "What the heck are you doing, Deku?"
"Midoriya-san, our fight has ended!" Iida yell as he gets up.
"Midoriya-kun!"
I prepared another attack, but I was knocked to the ground by an attack to the back of my cranium.
"Young man, I do not tolerate violence in my medical bay!" Recovery Girl yelled at me.
I pointed at the imposter, not bothering to get up. "That's not Katsuki Bakugo!"
"I am!" the fake argued.
"Lies! You would have cursed at least four times by now!" I countered.
"I don't always curse!"
"Yes, you do! You will even curse in front of your mother's guest at the dinner table!"
"That was one time!"
"It was every time!"
With startling speed for someone of her age, Recovery Girl smacked both us across the head. We were now both lying on the floor, glaring at one another.
"Deku!"
"Fake!"
"Shut up both of you!" Recovery Girl yelled, a strange black aura surrounding her.
[Fear of Recovery Girl increased by 75%]
I sensed everyone shiver.
"You two stay quiet until I figure who's my next patient," the elderly woman said, "You two are just as bad as All Might and Endeavor when they were here."
"Midoriya-kun is next," Uraraka said, "He hurt himself from overusing his quirk during the battle trial!"
"Nope! I almost reached the threshold of self-destruction," I corrected her as I and Katsuki stood up.
"You better not have hurt yourself. I don't have time to hear my old hag nag more," Katsuki complained, "Or have Auntie come up here and get someone fired or expelled."
"I'll just say it's your fault and she'll believe that," I said offhand.
Katsuki had distant look on his face. "Fuck you."
"Language! And Midoriya, come here," the doctor commanded.
I was praying to Kami that the doctor was only doing a light diagnosis. Any deeper and she would have found out. And I was so happy my outer surface was real.
"You're fine, but if you have any type of pain or soreness, let me know immediately," she ordered.
"Yes, Ma'am," I said, "Do you have some paper and pen?"
She gave a sticky note and a pen. I scribbled a phone number on it. "Mrs. Bakugo?"
"I believe she would be very interested in your means of controlling her son and stopping him to curse," I explained.
[Murderous anger directed at you.]
"Deku!" I ran out the room.
(Back With All Might)
The four of us returned just in time to see the shockingly short fight between Group B and I. Todoroki, in his weird emo robot suit, froze the whole damn building. He then just walked in and touched the bomb since the his enemies wore frozen to the ground. Ojiro and Hagakure had a bad match up.
[Uneasiness detected in Katsuki.]
[Source Unknown.]
"I see no one has any serious injuries," All Might said when Group B and I returned.
Yaoyorozu made some blankets and handed them to our shivering classmates. "Very considerate of you, Yaoyorozu, to relieve your classmates of their temporary unease."
"Thank you, sensei," she said, bowing a little.
"Todoroki, even though you defeated the villains by yourself, you didn't even consider cooperating with your teammate," All Might told my powerful classmate.
"I didn't need his help," the guy replied.
Rude!
"Maybe not this time, but a different opponent could have freed themselves from your ice," All Might said.
Todoroki looked away. "I doubt that."
"Katsuki could," I said suddenly, getting a glare from Todoroki, a suspicious look from Katsuki and confused stares from my other classmates. "He could easily use his quirk to free himself and then his teammate. And with you refusing to cooperate with your teammate, you would have to deal with an opponent that you couldn't lock down with your ice and an unknown variable.
[Glare of Todoroki intensified by 35%.]
"And he's not the only one who could free themselves," I continued, "Ashido can create acid to melt through your ice. And there's Sato, Kirishima, and me, who could all possibly break through your ice with just brute force."
[Glare of Todoroki intensified by 50%.]
"Wouldn't matter. None of you could beat me," he countered.
"That might be true for Ashido, Kirishima, Sato, and me in a one on one fight, but you still would to deal with our teammates. That would even the chances, a lot if our quirks were compatible," I told him, "But Kaachan is going to give you a run for your money. Even if you could beat him, emphasis on the if, you would have barely won and be exhausted. His teammate would then finish you off, if they hadn't already joined the battle."
[Glare of Todoroki intensified by 100%.]
[Todoroki disposition of you has gone from non caring to dislike to hated in under five minutes.]
[New record set.]
[Platinum Trophy earned.]
The guy just huffed and went his solitude corner of brooding. Good. He could stay there! With his stupid emo robot ice suit.
[Todoroki now referred to as Emo Bot.]
I looked at everyone else, who all had various emotions on display. Mostly confusion.
[Unease in Kaachan cured.]
[Ego restored to 100%.]
Well fuck. I didn't want that. All the hard work I accomplished during the battle was undone.
"Thank you for the analysis, Young Midoriya, but you didn't need to belittle your classmate," All Might said.
I didn't belittle him! I just pointed all his flaws like Yaoyorozu did to my group!
[Sassy mode initiated.]
"I wasn't belittling him," I argued, "I was spitting straight facts! Right Yaoyorozu?"
She seemed surprised that I was calling on her for support, but she was the only one who could break down a battle like me. "Um, yes?"
All Might's eye twitched in annoyance. "Work on your delivery next time."
"Okey dokey."
(Much later)
The rest of All Might's class went smoothly. I got a lot of good data from the battles I recorded.
Filthy Traitor was teamed up with Yaoyorozu. They had to go against Sero and Kirishima. Filthy Traitor and Yaoyorozu were the heroes, while Sero and Kirishima were the villains.
Sero had set up some traps with his Tape quirk, but Yaoyorozu had created some katanas for herself and Filthy Traitor to use. This allowed them easily them to cut through the traps and get the bomb room fairly easy.
Yaoyorozu had used threw a stun grenade inside the bomb room before her team went in. Kirishima was blinded, but Sero's visor had negated the grenades effect.
The Tape user tried to capture the girl when she burst into the room to attack Kirishima, but she used her katana to slice his tape. That stopped her assault on Kirishima, who had now recovered.
The redhead boy went to attack the girl, who threw away her katana in favor of a bo staff. As the two fought, Sero was standing guard and looking for an opening to attack the girl.
That's when he caught sight of Filthy Traitor sneaking behind the pillars. The purple haired boy said something to Sero, who immediately talked back. That was the fatal mistake for the villains.
Sero's eyes glazed and he then shot tape at his teammate, while Shinso walked up and took the bomb. Hero team Won.
The bell rang and I was knocked out my viewing of the past fights. I saw everyone was excited to leave.
"Remember to do your reports tonight," Cementos told the class, before releasing us.
As everyone was leaving, I was getting exited about my last class.
"I see you are ready to get out of here too," Filthy Traitor said, noticing the big smile on my face. He sat to my right.
"No. I actually have one more class," I told him.
"You got another fucking class?" Katsuki growled, who sat in front of me, "Why do you have another shitty class?"
"I signed up for it," I answered, as Uraraka and Iida approached us.
"We're all walking together, right?" Uraraka asked.
"Fuck no. This damn nerd decided to get another class added to his fucking schedule. So I got to stay at this damn school with his shitty ass so he doesn't fucking disappear," Katsuki complained.
"Bakugo, Midoriya is a great student! And I commend him for takin on extra work to improve yourself," Iida says.
"Ass Kisser," Katsuki mumbles. Only Uraraka and I catch it.
"Don't be so mean, Kaachan!"
[Imminent danger detected for Uraraka.]
[Restraining Kaachan.]
"The fuck did you just call me?" he yelled, probably about to foam at the lips. I had to use a lot of strength to keep him in his chair.
Uraraka backed away. "I was just repeating what Midoriya-kun called you earlier!"
"Only he can call me that!"
"Why's that?" the bored Filthy Traitor asked.
"Cause I fucking said so. Like I'm the only one who can call him Deku!"
"It's our childhood nicknames for each other," I explained, "We've known each other since we were toddlers."
"What class are you taking Midoriya?" Iida asked.
[Iida has successfully changed conversation subject.]
[Aggression in Kaachan has returned to normal levels.]
[No longer restraining Kaachan.]
Nice save, Iida. "Support items creation and maintenance 101. I'm making my own support gear to handle my quirk."
"So you're using all putting all that shitty studying you did last year to use?," Katsuki asked. I nodded. "Good, that's all you did last year anyway."
"What's he talking about, Midoriya-kun?" Uraraka asked.
"I picked up a hobby of making electronics last year. Just little gizmos," I told her, "Apparently, I'm good enough for the support course. That's where I would have been if I didn't pass the practical exam."
Katsuki snorted. "Like you wouldn't have passed. You're not a fucking extra anymore."
[Kaachan has given us a compliment?]
[Happiness increased by 300%.]
[Emotional dampeners subroutines working at full capacity.]
"Thanks, Kaachan," I said softly. My voice quivered a little, which I knew confused the others.
"Whatever. Let's get to your fucking class," Katsuki said as he got up and pulled me out the class.
"See you guys tomorrow," I said before I left.
